I think some of it needs cutting - or trimming, such as the pretty little girls school; Around there, the information is a bit scrapy (and even scrappy - sorry for my stupid puns). I'd like to actually see some Lojban (apart from the traditionnal e'osai ko sarji la lojban.) I'm not sure the comparison to programming languages is justified, apart from getting rid of all non-computer types in one fell sentence, I find that I can never remember programming language syntax (I've had to relearn Perl about 5 times - for the five programs I've written so far in Perl). Conversly, I know most of Lojban syntax, I just can't get the vocabulary in. I'd also like to see a leaflet which would work pinned up on a (real) bulletin board (I'm too lazy to fix one myself, although it would really just ressemble the old lojban.org) mu'o mi'e greg.
